Boulder Chorale DEIA

Diversity ~ Equity ~ Inclusivity ~ Accessibility

As we enter the 2022-2023 season, the Boulder Chorale proudly features concerts that reflect our organization's vision for a more culturally diverse musical experience. The Boulder Chorale’s Diversity, Equity, Inclusion and Accessibility committee (DEIA), with the support of the Board of Directors, previously formulated pro-equity value statements, crafted a land acknowledgment, and reviewed internal policies. Our leadership attended the Cultural Organizations Summit, presented by the City of Boulder and Boulder Arts Commission September 7, 2022. Moving forward, our board leadership and committee members will continue outreach to under resourced individuals in the community. Outreach - starting with our November concert, "Origins: The Fertile Crescent," a concert of Middle Eastern music - will be in the form of concert ticket donations and seeking community partnerships for presentations of art and ethnic food at our concerts. If you are interested in getting

involved with DEIA, or have ideas and contacts for outreach, please contact laura@boulderchorale.org.
